We got up at 7am, had breakfast and then took a bus and a ride share to the hospital. The bus was bumpy, and the ride share, was crowded, like 12 people in something the size of two rickshaws. The hospital was crazy, so many people, and strange smells. In the OR you have to take off your shoes and wear hospital regulation flip flops, some of the doctors just go barefoot. I'm not even kidding most people are barefoot all the time (I didn't bring sandals, I had to buy a pair) The OR smells are really strange.
There wasn't anything happening in the OR so we went to the birth center. Where I saw a baby being born. Right after the baby was born the electricity went out, apparently it happens all the time so it was no big deal. It seemed so different from the US. The woman was alone on a metal table. There were rubbler gloves hanging up drying, apparently they reuse them here. After the baby was born, there was blood on it and then I got really light headed, and almost fainted, but I sat down in time. and was fine.
After that nothing else was happening so we went to a shop to buy fabric for churidars, and then to the supermarket for water and appy fizz. then to an internet cafe and then to the shoe store. From there we walked home.. It was really hot, and I still didn't feel very well so the rest of the day I read and slept.
I found out that doggie eats cheap rice that jhansi cooks for him. There was some funny noise last night, and the lizard (who I now call Dennis) was back this morning. I think the maid took my toothbrush. I bought shampoo at the supermarket.
